quotes from Mel-
“If the enemy can’t keep you from burning for the Lord he will use ministry to burn you out.”
“Connection is produced when we do hard things together and we stay.”
“People don’t to do communal rhythms because relationships are hard and they talk a lot of work.”
“Values can be reproduced in any culture, any country or expression, but a model can’t.”
most holy moment- ‘glorious healthy shame’
“The Holy Spirit was there to say, ‘Can we talk before you go in.’…I felt the healthy shame. My heart breaks that I just hurt someone I love. It’s not just, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry.’ It’s ‘please forgive me for not yielding to the Holy Spirit in that moment. Please forgive me, I wanted someone to blame because I felt out of control. Forgive me.”
a thought to end with-
Let’s work hard at what we do and who we are becoming. Not going for perfect but for yielded humility. We can’t have community where perfect is expected.
some bits from speed round:
book rec-
Emotional Healthy Discipleship: Pete Scazzaro
fave song-
Girl From Ipanema (now that’s what I’m talking about.)
fave scripture now-
2 Cor 9: 6-8 NLT
Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.
best quick advice-
stay soft.
